Factors That Contribute to Successful Schools: A Caribbean Perspective by Eulalie Daley Semper Pdf

This book explores various factors that contribute to successful schools in the Caribbean. Based on my own personal and professional experience, I define successful schools as those schools where high-quality teaching takes place in a supportive environment. In these schools, spiritual leaders seek to work with educational stakeholders to develop and facilitate a culture of excellence. Therefore, I have decided to examine teacher development, community involvement, spiritual leadership, servant leadership, and an established culture of success as additional factors that can contribute to successful schools in the Antiguan context. However, this study can yield valuable information that can be used to assess educational practices within different types of schools regionally and globally since one of its main aims is to explore stakeholders’ perceptions on the contributing factors to schools’ academic success. In this book, educational practitioners, policy makers, and institutional leaders will find principles of success that will affect principal leadership, classroom learning, and student achievement.

Developing Successful Schools by Stephen P. Gordon Pdf

This book identifies and emphasizes the need for a holistic approach to school improvement when it comes to both the development of the whole child and the relationships among student, family, and community development. In recent years, the emphasis in PK-12 education in the United States has been on the measurement of student and school performance by high-stakes achievement tests. This emphasis has resulted in a narrowed curriculum emphasizing lower-level cognitive learning, with little attention paid to the moral, social, and creative development of students, families, and communities. This book argues that PK-12 education needs to shift its focus to holistic qualities of the successful school, qualities that reflect a moral rather than a technical approach to education while also improving students’ academic performance.

Successful Schools for Young Adolescents by Joan Lipsitz Pdf

At a time when the public, researchers, and policymakers are losing confidence in public schooling, this presentation of case studies of four schools offers solutions and concrete models of diverse ways in which excellence can be attained in middle-grade schools. Asking what "effectiveness" means for the young adolescent age group (a hitherto unexplored area in research literature), how effective schools come about, and how they achieve acceptance in their communities, Lipsitz identifies and examines successful middle-grade schools, noting that the major problem in schooling is meeting the massive individual differences in the development of early adolescents.

Healthy Boards, Successful Schools by William R. Mott Pdf

There is no calling, no more vital responsibility, than the education of our nation's and world's future leaders. Independent and faith-based schools succeed and thrive in the presence of visionary leadership. In its absence, schools struggle and often fail to achieve their mission. The success story for schools is the strength of the leadership found in the relationship between the head of school, the board chair, and all trustees. It is through this relationship, partnership, and acceptance of roles and responsibilities where this health and this success can be found.
